I gravitate towards novels that try to make sense I gravitate towards novels that try to make sense of society: how it functions, who we have to become to partake in it, and what happens when we deviate from its norms and expectations. In "Convenience Store Woman" by Sayaka Murata, the protagonist is middle aged and has no interest in getting married and having children. Keiko actually wants to be a cog in the machine and thinks of herself and her co-workers as "cells" that comprise the sentient being that is the convenience store where she has worked for the last 18 years. It's the only place where she feels she truly belongs because it absorbs her rejected individuality into an accepted one-ness. I found this book absolutely delightful and charming, but I can see how others might find it dark and unsettling. Lots of interesting ideas in such a slim novel.

I resisted reading this book during this time of c I resisted reading this book during this time of confinement because I thought a story about a young woman trying to hibernate for a year with prescription pills would be too bleak and depressing. But it turned out to be very funny, sharp, and savage. Magic how thrilling of a read this is given the lack of plot. I particularly liked the first half with the stuff about the New York art scene, Dr. Tuttle, and Reva barging in all the time. And the way the author described sleep made it sound very appealing. I think I expected too much from the last quarter of the book and wanted more from the Reva and Ping Xi characters, but I would still buy a paperback version (this is an ebook from the library) because there are passages I would want to read again. The first novel to get me excited about literature in 2020. Will read her collection of short stories next. Update: selected this as the next book to read in my #cuppateabookclub Goodreads group.
